A Microcirculatory Effect - Can this be Good For You?
Mar 10, 2007 Have you seen Smashbox's newest blush called O-Glow? It is blush that is said to work with your own personal chemistry to have you naturally blushing all day.
Here is the description from Smashbox.com:
Experience instant chemistry as your complexion is transformed from so-so to oh-so-glowing! The first intuitive blush, this clear gel reacts with your personal skin chemistry to turn cheeks the exact color you blush, naturally in just seconds! O-GLOW works on every skin tone, from the lightest to the darkest, to give everyone a naturally gorgeous glow. When applied, your skin's moisture activates the energizing Goji Berry-C Complex™. It creates a microcirculatory effect, producing a rosy flush that lasts all day. This revolutionary silicone-based clear gel works on every skin tone and is microcirculating and skin energizing to keep cheeks naturally flushed for hours. O-GLOW's unique Goji Berry-C Complex™ formula is full of antioxidants like vitamin C, pomegranate seed oil and marine plankton for added healthy-skin benefits. The completely natural looking, preservative and fragrance-free formula glides on smoothly for a healthy, glowing blush that's you, only prettier.
I don't know about you, but I am concerned. Can this really be good for your blood or your skin? Is this Goji Berry-C Complex a safe ingredient? I know that when I blush, my cheeks feel very warm. I mean, isn't blushing a surge of blood to your cheeks, or other areas? I am afraid to try this.
Has anyone used O-GLow yet? If you have, I am anxious to know - how did it feel? Did you cheeks feel warm? Did it last longer than a conventional makeup product?

Excuse my frankness, but this is just BS. I went to Sephora at my mall, and asked one of the advisors about O-Glow. She looked at my face and quickly told me it is too pink for me. She was right.
It's just makeup - a clear gel that turns pink on your skin. It turned pink on my hand. If you are fair-skinned and look good in pink, it should look OK on you.
No tingling, just hype.
Aloha, Soos
Goji Berry Complex?!? I mean, come on!
This is just a fancy gel blush as far as I'm concerned. There was no macgical color adjustment when I tried it out either.
I'm curious to see how sales for this product are doing though...
I bought this gel over the weekend. I put it on and it stayed all day. I could not wash it off with any cleansers that I have. I just waited until it "disappeared" by itself. I am thinking if I should just return it or give it another chance.
I am in the market for new skincare. I'm looking at Natural Advantage and Meaningful Beauty. Has anyone tried both of them? Which one is better?
Amazing!!! I look so healthy!!! Would but this product again and again!! People comment on how healthy I look and how beauiful my skin is. Scary to use at 1st as it turns bright pink but within 5 minutes I was so natural looking.
